GradConnection have just launched an online wizard which will help University Graduates select the best Graduate program. It compares the various programs on offer from employers and ranks them accordingly by an algorithm based on your search query called the “Grad Rank”

The process is quite simple, and in under a few minutes I was presented with a list of programs that were suitable.

There was one question which caught my eye “I would look favorably on a company that let me use…” which relates to the use of social software. Certinally graduates (mostly Gen Y) are wanting to use these social sites and connection tools in the workplace.

There are still some minor bugs. But all-in-all, the program will help graduates refine the job searching process. The list of graduate programs on offer was quite limited, and I would assume over the next coming weeks more and more employers will start signing up.

Graduate job coaching and interview training can certainly help graduates get ahead of the pack. I know a graduate who needed assistance in presenting (not blemishing) his CV and improving his interview technique - he eventually got several job offers from companies.
